Primary Analyst: EW 4/3/24 Contributing Analyst(s): Reviewer: CW OFA Fiscal Note State Impact: None Municipal Impact: None Explanation The bill has no fiscal impact by requiring the Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD) to conduct a study of workforce shortages, workforce development and training availability. The bill does not outline any specific requirements for the study to include. It is therefore anticipated that DECD can produce the study within existing resources.
